The Ghost Walk and tales of terror

A collection of short horror stories that capture the fears and horrors borne out of the contemporary Indian mind. The ghost walk of first year grad students at a medical college, a hallucinating artist creating a masterpiece, a quarreling couple driving to a disaster, children playing with faceless Shariah dolls, a bloody banquet, and evil on paper coming to life. This collection is about ordinary people pushed into ominous situations.
The stories also talk about our search for meaning, karma, religious morality, consumerism, patriarchy and substance abuse. But underlying all of them is the common feeling of awe and wonderment at a world that we have grown up in and believe we know well enough, which still manages to scare and horrify us in unexpected ways.
